WiSTEM 2022 - 2023

Exit Slip Analyses

Background

WiSTEM: In total, there were 17 overall WiSTEM meetings held throughout the 2022-2023 academic school year. However, there were 13 meetings with attendance data and 14 meetings with exit slip data. Some of these overlap in missing both attendance and exit slip data.

Exit Slips Distribution: Overall, there were 483 total exit slips collected over the course of the 2022-2023 academic school year. The graph and table below show the number of exit slips obtained for each of the 14 meetings where exit slips were provided:

Completion Rate

Distribution: Even though there were 13 meetings with attendance data, only 12 meetings overlap with the meetings that also have exit slip data collected throughout the 2022-2023 school year. Overall, the majority of meetings have an over 70% exit slip completion rate based on the number of students that attended the meeting. However, 3 meetings have completion rates of less than 50%. Besides that, the Sep 30th meeting seems to have an issue as there were more exit slips collected than the number of students that signed their name on the attendance sheet.

October 28, 2022

Topic: Activity

Distribution: A majority (50%) of the students found the meeting to be Fairly interesting. Even though 44.4% of students thought it was Very interesting, it is slightly surprising that this activity based meeting was not more engaging as the meeting before this. However, the same trend can be seen from the last meeting with a majority (55.6%) saying they Strongly agree with the statement that they feel included in WiSTEM and a majority (50%) saying they Strongly agree with the statement that they feel that they belong in the STE(A)M community. Therefore, a sense of community that is being built has started off strong and remains strong into the third meeting.

Topic: Activity

Distribution: A majority (57.1%) of the students found the meeting to be Very interesting, having no students choosing the Somewhat option. However, a majority (57.1%) said they Agree with the statement that they feel included in WiSTEM and a majority (52.4%) said they Agree with the statement that they feel that they belong in the STE(A)M community. Therefore, there seemed to be a slight decrease in a sense of community, especially since 1 student said they Strongly disagree with both statements.
